Customer Reviews
I think I liked the greens more than the root and the turnips were just beautiful to grow. It is exciting to see that root burst out of the soil! I think I grew my bulbs too large so the roots became a bit bitter, but the greens were good cooked!
These were fast to mature and really tasty. I am new to gardening and didn’t thin my seedlings well enough so many of them did not produce much of a root but that’s okay because we definitely got to use the greens! Photos are of the turnips from the garden to my kitchen and the dish we made with them. Some turnips in the photo are not the purple top variety but overall I think the purple top got larger than the others I planted.
Planted nearly 100 feet of these turnips and the germination rates have been over 99%! Healthy plants are growing strong, very impressed with their immediate vigor. Will hold off on the 5-star rating to see what the harvest looks like. In the end, the proof is on the plate!
